Triple P Wednesday: Make it stop

What parent hasn’t had that thought in the midst of dealing with an annoying or difficult behavior? Right? You know those moments when you are sweating and feel all eyes on you? Or you are at home and you just don’t think you can handle one more whiny voice? I can’t be the only one.

Here’s the deal. There are lots of ways to make the behavior stop in the moment, so choose carefully! You want to respond in a way that makes the behavior stop in the future.

But this is not a one size fits all kind of choice. It depends on who your child is and the circumstances of the situation.
